Turtle Bay was dreamt up by Ajith, who after time in Barbados devouring delicious food and drink from Surfside bar, decided he wanted to recreate a place to dine with similar energy. One that was all about experience; nights passing in a blink of an eye via rum, games and friendly service.

At the heart of its one of two Liverpool locations on Victoria Street, you'll find the island bar taking centre stage as a hommage to Surfside, and plenty of vibrant, surf shack-style decorations from wooden tables to twinkly fairy lights laced around beams. The energy and excitement of the Caribbean are prevalent in this quirky, cool restaurant, alongside scrumptious eats, happy hours every single day and iconic bottomless brunches. 

On the menu, you can expect to tuck into the likes of jerk chicken platters covered in a rich gravy, west Indian curries like katsu or goat, and seafood soul bowls, followed by caramelised rum plantain or a salted caramel chocolate brownie for dessert. There are plenty of small plate options for sharing with friends too, all of which can be washed down with lychee daiquiris or guava breezes.
